the bank teller

the guy at the bank
window
in his orange turban
knows me, at last.
nine thousand deposits later
he knows my
name.
we chat, as strangely
as one can
behind bullet proof glass,
and a speaker
full of static.
we're growing old together,
making small talk
about the weather,
as we exchange
checks for cash.
